Price: $35 per month with a ten-day free trial. The videos are clearly labeled for beginner, intermediate, or advanced students, so Ballet Beautiful works well for all levels, and I’ll probably continue doing it until I become a so-called advanced student. The monthly membership gives you access to all of her classes - I can only watch the ones I bought - so if you like variety, that route might be a good choice for you. I don’t pay for the monthly streaming membership I actually buy the workout videos because I’m very loyal and stick with the same ones for a few months until I decide I need a new challenge. I improved my flexibility doing her daily dance stretch routine - which has elements of yoga in it as well as classic (I think) ballet stretches - and I seriously think it’s helped me sleep better since I started doing it every night to wind down. I mostly enjoy her mat routines and think I’ve seen the most improvements in my strength from those, even though they’re at most eight minutes each. Because former New York City Ballet dancer Mary Helen Bowers, the founder and instructor, breaks the workouts into small, targeted videos that vary from a 4-minute ab workout to a 16-minute lunge routine, I can stay focused on the task at hand. What It’s Like: I don’t remember how I found Ballet Beautiful - probably Instagram - but I do remember thinking, “Six minute videos? I can do that.” And in the past two years of trying probably a dozen or so online workout subscriptions, it’s the one I’ve really stuck to. Tl dr: If you don’t have a lot of time (or the attention span), Ballet Beautiful breaks down targeted and effective ballet-like workouts into as little as four minutes. Tester: Chloe Anello, who has been doing Ballet Beautiful three times a week for about two years and almost every day in quarantine. Price: From $4 per video, or $40 per month after a $16 one-month trial period.
